For sale is the massive Genesis 1 full range speaker system considered to be one of the very best in the world by all that either have them, or heard them. Visually they are stunning, finished in South American Rosewood with a sound to die for.

As I need to sell them now I have further reduced the price to a staggering LOW $43,000 so get in quick for this absolute real bargain for the purchaser.

I will not accept any lower offers.

I will ship WORLDWIDE, buyer pays all shipping and I will pack as described below.

These were manufactured prior to the ones currently available at
http://www.genesisloudspeakers.com/ known as Genesis Prime.

They were purchased new by me around 1999 and Very rarely do extreme Hi End speakers of this quality both in sound and visually stunning ever become available at this very low price. They are Legendary, designed by Arnie Nudell and offering vast improvements following on from his famous Infinity IRS Series V.

The system is in PERFECT working order. Visually there are minor scuffs on the 4000 watt bass amplifier. There are some scuffs on the black lacquered custom sculpted bases and also that the Bass speakers sit on. Unfortunately this happens because of the need to slide them on and off when repositioning them. I have given a 7/10 to cover Audiogons condition notes just in case I have missed anything that to me is simply not noticeable. Its such a massive system.

The Genesis 1 system consists of four major modules: two midrange / tweeter Towers and two bass Towers. Each module is 7 ft 3inches tall (221cm), is covered in beautiful South American Rosewood, and is set on / into piano black lacquered custom sculpted bases.

Each bipolar midrange tweeter Tower sits in a sculpted base, is 7 ft 3 inches high and houses a line source ribbon midrange and twenty six ribbon tweeters in a line source array and assembled in a Corian baffle of which twenty are at the front, and six are at the rear. Two wings attach to each Corian baffle and are two inches thick and filled with sand to render them completely inert for wave launching.

There are two crossover modules (One for each Midrange/Tweeter Tower) which are housed in a solid Corian enclosure and they sit at the rear AND connect to the midrange / tweeter Towers. You connect your amplifier to this crossover. The crossover has two controls, one for the rear tweeter level and one for upper midrange for matching room acoustics. All cabling to this is done by Transparent Audio.

THE SOUND OF THE MIDRANGE / TWEETER TOWERS
These are the flagship of the Genesis range and compared to all the lower Genesis models these sound so much more refined, detailed and with an immense soundstage - holographic even. The overall sound is so real and beautiful that you just sit there and forget all the other problems in your life - mesmerizing and to die for.

The bass towers are 7 ft 3 inches tall and each house six twelve inch metal cone woofers, each with its own accelerometer sensor and is set into piano black lacquered custom sculpted bases.

Although not shown in the photos each bass speaker has a full length black speaker cover in perfect condition. I just prefer to see the cones.

The twelve woofers (Six in each Tower) are individually driven by twelve separate Servo amplifiers for a total of 4000 watts, beautifully housed in a Single Genesis Stealth chassis weighing 160 pounds. It is currently set to 240v but easily changed to 110v / 120v. 12 Swiss Neutrik connectors are at the rear together with XLR & RCA inputs.

There are 2 massive Audioquest hand made 24 conductor, oxygen free, high purity copper cabling for connecting the subwoofer Towers to their respective amplifiers. Each Audioquest cable feeds six woofers, is thirty feet long and weighs about 20 pounds.

Controls for the woofers include volume, low pass, high pass and phase, and are varied by a hand held remote control transmitter.

THE SOUND OF THE BASS TOWERS
They are absolutely no comparison whatsoever to any of the bass in the other Genesis range especially the 2 & 201s, I know because I have heard them. I can assure you that you will be amazed with the Bass that this system gives out. Not only is it extremely deep and solid, you will actually FEEL it ,,,,at certain orchestral bass levels it moves (air) your cloths that you are wearing and the room. You just sit there kinda holding on and saying WOW and absolutely no distortion at all. I have never heard a Bass like it from any other speaker. In my opinion it seems that the Bass is way below 16 hz because you can feel it.

The complete Genesis 1 System weighs over 1 ton (2000 pounds or 909 kg).

CONCLUSION BY THE DESIGNERS AND MANUFACTURERS
"The Genesis 1 system contains the collective knowledge and experience of Arnie Nudell and Paul McGowan over more than 25 years. The technology contained in these speakers is the most advanced of any product currently available. We believe that no current product on the market today can approximate the sonic realism or striking beauty of the Genesis 1. There is no compromise in this system. It excels at spectral coherence and accurate harmonic structure. It has the greatest dynamic range of any High End reference system. It has superb macro and micro dynamic qualities, unparalleled sound staging and very low distortion. It does not limit or favor any kind of music. Listening to the Genesis 1 is truly a Revelation."

COLLECTION / SHIPPING DETAILS.
I live in Australia and I have no shipping crates but the purchaser could come with van / small truck or he could engage a professional removal company. If required I can pack as described below Free of charge.

Alternatively if the purchaser is in another country they would arrange all shipping including collection from my house. My nearest port would be Fremantle, Western Australia.

Prior to packing I would Video the System in full working order and individually demonstrating the Bass Towers, Midrange, Front Tweeters and Rear Tweeters are all in perfect working order.

Included in the price I would wrap each item substantially in heavy duty bubble wrap giving at least 4 inches all round protection, Bass Speaker fronts / cones etc would receive further protection with hardboard sheets.
There would be 7 Packages in all. All items in that package would be listed on the Package. I would video / photo during disassembly and packing for insurance purposes and to help the purchaser in unpacking and assembly.

Both with photos, video and my ongoing personal support after purchase I want to assure that you will have no problem in unpacking, setting up and enjoying these wonderful speakers as I have.

My Reason for selling is that I am 70. We now need to move to a much smaller home and health reasons.

It’s really hard for me to part with these wonderful pieces of musical equipment which I have had so much enjoyment from. My thought process worked when I first purchased them. BUY THE VERY BEST to get OFF the constant upgrade cycle, and it worked, never bought another speaker since as all the other Hi End speakers I heard did not even get close.

If Payment by PayPal which maybe not possible due to the value involved add 31/2%. Bank Transfer will i guess be the only way to pay or maybe through the banks on the day if collected.

Please ask me any questions or if you require further photos.
